Hi! I think you will earn far more indie

No offense, but idea of being a DT exclusive is laughable.

Perfectly agree. To exclusive at any microstock agency is unthinkable, and then of all agencies Dreamstime...
Upload to SS, Adobe and Alamy. You should make at least 3 times more than what you are doing now.
Some of your images are good, although, as you said, not all your images are microstock oriented.
Good luck

Leave DT Exclusive, spread your wings and you will earn more, guaranteed.

I'm finding it tough enough to justify being exclusive at a Midstock agency, let alone at a small earning Micro site with a questionable future

Thank you all for your time to reply!

That was what I've wanted dear friends - cold hard facts and truth based on experience and knowledge. Please keep sharing your thoughts; nothing offensive there and I'll never get offended no matter what.

I tried exclusivity with one site - but so far, 0 sales from that site. I am thinking of going non-exclusive because otherwise it means I can't sell that content elsewhere...

I would say your about 7/8 Years past even thinking about this or for that matter any site. except RM.

They've openly admitted that their sales have plummeted in a law suit against Google.

"As a result, Google devastated Dreamstime's business, cost it millions of dollars in sales and threatens its survival."

If I went exclusive at DT, I'd have to earn 1000 times more there than I am currently, to offset not being able to sell elsewhere. I can't see that happening!

The only one I'd even consider is maybe Adobe/Fot. I don't think I've sold anything on DT all year.
